The #3 Detroit Mercy Titans dominated the 2nd half in defeating the #2 Wright State Raiders, 71-52, in the semifinals of the 2017 Horizon League women's tournament at the Joe Louis Arena.

Detroit Mercy (18-13) will now take on top-seeded Green Bay (26-5) for the championship this Tuesday at noon. The two teams split this year's regular season meetings with each winning on their home court.

This will be the 7th time in Horizon League history that the Titans will play for the HL title with all six previous meetings being against Green Bay. UDM's lone title win against them was in 1997.
